Jessie Wallace is engaged
Eastenders actress Jessie Wallace has become engaged to a man she met on a blind date six months ago.
The soap star was set up on a date with catering company manager Vincent Morse by her castmate Charlie Brooks.
Wallace admits they got off to a bad start, but she’s now convinced he’s the one.
She tells OK! magazine, “We were set up last December by the ex-partner of my good friend Charlie Brooks, who’s pals with Vince. He thought we’d be perfect for each other so we went out on a blind date but it didn’t go very well.
“I remember telling Charlie the date was a disaster! I think it was because I’d never been out on a blind date before. We were sitting opposite each other eating and I was nervous and the whole evening was just really awkward.”
But now Wallace can’t wait to walk down the aisle with Morse after he popped the question: “I knew literally straight away I wanted to spend the rest of my life with him. I do believe there’s one person out there for you and the more time we spend together the closer we become, it’s like we’re one person.
“Vince is my Mr. Right, there’s been a huge gap in my life and I’ve had relationships but there was always something missing. If not one thing, loads of things missing. But Vince has got everything I’ve been looking for. I never thought I’d see the day when I got married. I’ve never been this happy with a man before.”
Wallace has a six-year-old daughter, Tallulah, from a previous relationship.
